Pros

Work/life balance was good. Nice people.

Cons

Seriously? When I left the company, I had a few days of unused vacation. HR told me they would pay it out on the following pay period. That did not happen. This is just one more real life example of how disappointing it is to work at MSCI.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. Our vacation policy provides for payment of unused accrued vacation days upon termination. Upon termination, HR reviews the number of vacation days an employee has taken and determines if there are any remaining accrued unused days. Payroll is then notified to payout those days in the next available pay cycle. If you believe your payment of unused accrued vacation days was incorrect, please reach out to the US Benefits Team at askbenefits@MSCI.COM for assistance.
